Topic: You Have Access [TREM Devotional Tuesday June 5, 2018]

“For through Him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.” Ephesians 2:18

As a child of God, by the reason of Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection, you have access to God. God is your Father, and you can go before Him, and receive solutions to your challenges. The Bible says that we were once afar of, but because of the blood, we have been brought near; oh what a loving Father! There is nothing you need that cannot be found in Christ, absolutely nothing. Is it wisdom? it is found in Christ; is it peace? it is found in Christ. Is it wealth? It all belongs to Him, and the amazing thing is that you have access to everything that belongs to Christ.

Romans 5:2 (KJV) says “By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Not only is all you need in Christ, you have direct access to the Father. You can enter His presence at any time and be assured that you are always welcome. He is never too busy to attend to you. Therefore, beloved, utilize your access, don’t sit down there and cry, and lament, when you can have all that Jesus Christ died for you to have. The price was paid for you and I.

Not only do you have access, you have a guarantee of answered prayers. The wall of partition has been pulled down and nothing can erect it again. This is why you need a clear understanding of what Jesus Christ has done for you and what the blood of Christ has provided for you. When you have this understanding, there is no challenge, absolutely nothing that can defeat you.

A clear understanding of the level of access you have will cause your faith to rise and take all that grace has made available, because it is all yours.
